Roane bucks trend, road fatalities are down in 2012

Nine people died in traffic accidents in Roane County last year compared to 12 in 2011. That trend didn’t play out across the state.

“The Tennessee Highway Patrol is continuing to place an emphasis on seat belt and DUI enforcement, such as No Refusal, to address this increase,” said Dalya Qualls, a spokeswoman for the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
